Default organic food

i know a few people that started eating organic a while back and they all tell me organic food tastes much better. they all say that they can taste a difference in the quality of the food. one girl i know works at whole foods and eats there every day. she said that shes eaten organic food for so long that when she eats food thats not organic she gets sick. the way i see it organic food is "real" food and the food we eat today isnt no longer real food. the food we eat today is not the same food our grandparents ate that made them live to be the age of 90 and 100. Thats why these 5th graders today are so damn big!


Anyone else go through the interview process at river place? Any updates anyone!?!

Im waiting too! My interview was over a month ago. I figure since i didnt get a denial, it should be looking good? who knows. Also i was thinking they may have people who have been approved but they havent called them yet because they want to have more people approved so they can get them all into the same orientation? I dunno, the last orientation that we know of was about 2 or 3 weeks ago?

I was approved for an Apt on the corner of Houston and Pitt st. Its called THE LEE. I havent seen any talk about it in forums. I was approved about 7 months ago, but the building still isnt finished. LOL. I dont know why they were approving people when the building was just a shell. Its not 80/20 though, Its all affordable housing. I much prefer RP2 for several reasons.

@ dlisted87

Call them up and ask them for an update !! If its been that long you certainly havent been denied..at worst your on the waiting list. But call them up and ask for an update. I think its terrible how they just have people in the air so to speak in regard to their status. They did the same thing to me and I took Jose's advice and just kept calling..till they gave me an answer

Even their one bedrooms are small.

I've read reviews of the building and it doesn't seem like market rate renters are too happy with lower income "welfare" residents living there. There are also talks of the building going into foreclosure due to all of the empty units. Bad ventilation comments and staff coming into apartments without notice. The building has so many terrible reviews.

why not just talk naturally? instead of using an android to sell the thing lol

"it doesn't seem like market rate renters are too happy with lower income "welfare" residents living there"

thats sad actually, and not all the low income people are on welfare..most of us work and these kinds of opportunities are golden for us regular working class people.
The rich want it ALL to themselves..SELFISH
